Memorials of the Lost explores the United Kingdom memorials that honour servicemen and women of the First and Second World Wars who have no known grave. Many were lost at sea or in the air, while others are buried in the UK but whose graves have been lost over time. Each memorial ensures that all who served are remembered, with sites such as Runnymede for the air services and Tower Hill for those lost at sea.This book highlights individuals who were awarded honours, held senior ranks, were young, women, or notable in other ways, including sporting achievements before the wars. It provides a comprehensive look at the memorials maintained by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission, giving readers insight into how the fallen without known graves are commemorated.
